Ross I seem to have lost a lengthy posting that dealt with the Single Market & the point you make about the A20 severance of TownWall St.
The time span you identified was when Dover really buzzed from Freight Forwarders, Customs at their heyday.
Castle St, Russell St, Bench St, Snargate St, all fed Dover's prosperity & the Market Sq buzzed.
The Bucklnd Paper Mill was turning out quality paper, Dover Engineering Works led the drain cover market & the International sorting Post Office at Charlton Green added to the HQ of the National Coal Board offices for Kent next to the Yacht Club [hence the siting of the Miner Statue].
Kath will no doubt turn out the archives. Bob would have been in Snargate St. I expect with a combination of Stan Wells & George Pepper with Terry S in his prime & Bill running the old printing presses that consistently broke down.
